Hurricane Ike 2008.. The big show..
The Hurricane hit the Texas gulf coast, plowed right over Galveston and right into Houston..
We hadn't seen a hurricane like this since 1983.
Now, aside from it being a wild time, Houston survived with much damage but, survived none the less. Galveston, on the other hand, suffered devastating damage and loss, Crystal beach (along with other beach towns) was, for all sakes and purposes, wiped completely of of the map.
Which bring me to the psychological impact put upon us by the government..
FEMA (Homeland Security) showed up right on time to start the psychological warfare. Michael Chertoff opened his foul mouth and the real disaster began... He chanted crap like "Certain Death", "Loss of life" etc. Obviously we don't need a government suit to tell us that, we're Texans, we take our chances.. Jerk...
The Media, of course, followed suit by their constant chants of "Monster Storm", "Deadly Storm", "Hunker Down", etc.. Then the constant broadcasts afterward, that also continues to this day.. All of the media's updates were being placed online, ONLINE? without electricity in our homes, what the hell were they thinking??!! Oh, and by the way, we are sick of constantly hearing about it, it's over !!! Jerks...
FEMA: Half assed dip shits, denying help, in fighting, closing areas of the city, denying people access to their homes. marshal law
PODs: Half assed, short on supplies, awash with excuses, and being politicized.
Media: Same old crap, double speak, doom and gloom, touting themselves as hero's.
Gasoline: No supplies, no tankers, no gas. This was staged because the roads were clear.
People: Moving faster than the federal government in helping their neighbors.
Looting: There was some of that, but you know who was doing the looting, don't you.
It started with the loss of electricity, water, gas, and phone service. This, mind you, was hours before the storm was even close to land ! One week after the storm, people are still without power, the grocery stores are still out of food, and FEMA PODs are out there distributing water, Ice and MREs. Funny how these PODs are only at the poor sides of town, the middle class is left to forage for themselves.
The pompous political circus that has arrived is awash with political hacks looking for votes and trying to look like hero's but, only in their political areas.. Jerks...
Repairing Katrina's legacy
FEMA needed to repair it's horrible image because of the Katrina fiasco, to which they did a worse job than before. By cutting power and communications, they wanted to appear as the saviors, to assume power and control, they imposed curfews and limited food supplies in order to bring the population under it's control, calling it "Texas Task Force Ike", More like "City under siege". Is it practice for future events of control and marshal law?
Well, I guess they didn't see it coming because they don't understand that Texas is NOT like other states, Texans have a habit of standing up when they are knocked down, ready to finish the fight. That didn't set well with the Federal government, however, Texans (again) do not care what the fed thinks.
You see, the day after Hurricane Ike, Texans were already cleaning up their neighborhoods, cutting down the trees, helping neighbors, pretty much getting ready for work the following Monday. By Sunday, the streets and debris were already cleaned up and looking normal.
The next time FEMA thinks about coming to our rescue, Please don't bother, you were more of a hindrance than help, stay in Washington where you belong, we do not need your help.
